  11. Abdullah to Obama: Watch out for Brother Mursi

    King Abdullah II of Jordan, a member of the dwindling band of Arab leaders who have somehow stayed in power despite the rise of what he calls a "Muslim Brotherhood crescent" across the Middle East, made an acute observation to me recently about the tactical immaturity of the Brotherhood's leadership.

  17. Why is Obama going to Israel?

    President Obama is visiting Israel this week, the first foreign trip of his second term.
